Lost In The Trees Premieres "Golden Eyelids" Video At Brooklyn Vegan

Brooklynvegan.com is premiering a striking new video from the band Lost In The Trees. The clip is for the group's song "Golden Eyelids" from the band's revered new album A Church That Fits Our Needs which Billboard Magazine called "Stunningly beautiful." In the video, watery translucent imagery provides a potent visual accompaniment to the intensely personal emotions conveyed in this affecting song.

The new Lost In The Trees record A Church That Fits Our Needs is an immensely ambitious work inspired by loss and transformation. In the summer of 2009, the group's writer, composer and singer, Ari Picker, lost his artist mother when she took her own life. Picker has transformed the event into an evocative and moving musical tribute. Far from being a somber affair, the classically trained composer has utilized rhythm as its own emotional language, never losing the propulsive vitality of great rock and roll.
